Lanecia Tinsley

Lanecia is an abstract painter, photographer, workshop leader + speaker based in Houston, Texas. She mostly works with acrylic, encaustic wax, oils, cold wax, pastels + paper collage on canvas + wood. She creates work that draws upon her travels — the life, palettes, textures + stories she discovers there. Her work also explores the “negative spaces” in life — those times of ambiguity + uncertainty, silence + mystery through subtle textures, color, markings + layers to create a history within the work.

As an artist, she believes her call is to create opportunities for people to encounter beauty through the work of her hands + the spaces she cultivates for others to tap into their creativity. She is currently in partnership with Holy Family HTX as their Artist-In-Residence.
